I am a client centered cognitive therapist. My approach is to accept
you where you are without judgement. I am interactive and offer insights and opinions when appropriate.
I believe our world view and life experience is built in the framwork our belief
systems. Real change occurs at this level.
My perspective on gender identity is we all have it and only I can determine what
that identity looks like an means to me. I offer you that same privlege... to determine your own identity! We know who we
are but many times we get messages from family, peer, society that who we are is not acceptable. Not honoring our spirit has
a way of erroding our hearts to being constantly guarded and hidden for fear of people discovering our truth. I have worked
with people in transition since 1997 and know the journey is unique to everyone. There is no "one way" to do this.
I am here to help you determine how to create a life for yourself you can love and appreciate.
Here we are in 2025 and the Republicans have hijacked transwellness and are removing access for trans
healthcare for transyouth. We had so much to offer transkids and they are dismantling it all. Demonizing transpeople
has put a target on transchildren's backs and it is horrific and unforgivable. I am returning to the days when I first started
working with transhumans. Teaching people how to survive in a world that doesn't treat them as equals. Watching out for transkids
restriction of food and water all day to avoid the school bathroom. We can not afford to remove hope from these kiddos. The
good news is.. those supportive parents are still out there, fighting the fight for their kids. This is a time for us to support
each other by allowing transhumans the space to be authentic. I will continue to provide counseling as long as I am able.
I am going 100% virtual at the end of April 2025. Hang in there... we must survive.
I am hopeful this generation will define for themselves their gender expression, identity, and expectation
and take over public policy that denies their existance. In the face of everything that is happening in our world I believe
we can find peace, love, and joy. I will remain a safe place that allows all gender varient people to become their best self.
